READING
READING 1: Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE, FALSE or
NOT GIVEN.
A TRIP AROUND THE USA
Dear Family,
Everything has been so much fun here in the US. I am sorry that it has taken me so long to
write. When we arrived yesterday, we immediately went to our hotel in New York City, took
showers, and began our sightseeing trip! We saw the Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, and Times
Square, all in just one day.
Unfortunately, we could only spend one day in New York because we had to take the train to
see Niagara Falls. I am riding the train now as I write. We should arrive in a few hours. I think
we’ll go straight to bed as it will be past midnight when we arrive.
After Niagara Falls, we’re going to visit Toronto in Canada as it is only a little further north.
I’ve never been to Canada, so that will be exciting. From Toronto, we’re going to take a flight
to Los Angeles. That’s where we’re going to stay for the rest of the trip. I think Sam wants to
go to Disneyland, so I’m sure we’ll do that. And of course, we’re going to surf in the Pacific
Ocean!
I will try to write again soon, but we are doing so much that I can’t make any promises. Take
care.
We love you both,
Francis and Sam
